Özet

Arşivlerle hafıza arasında benzetme yapmak tüm dünyada yaygın bir husus. Ancak bizim ülkemizde bu benzetmenin ortaya çıkardığı bir sonuca gidiliyor: Arşivler ve buna yönelik uygulamalar yalnızca geçmişi kapsayan bir unsurdur ve genel itibariyle geçmişin güçlü ve şanlı tarihine ve değerler sistemine gönderme yapmalıdır; bugün için önemi ile geleceğe yönelik göndermeleri çok göz önüne alınmasa da, tarihi olanlar haricindeki şeyler önemsenmese veya yok edilse de olur.
